hummm..i/e/h that would help some... you cold rebuild the engine and put performance stuff in there, like pistons, cam shafts (I think your car is DOHC)? or you can gut the car out, for every 100 pounds you loose, it frees up 5 hp. Or you can get some big yellow APC or NOS stickers.... ooo or u can fill the tires with a lot of air... so u will roll faster..

if you want to turbocharge the engine, keep that one. its a little larger displacment. theres enough out there for the car that i dont think you will run out of parts to buy. the aftermarket isnt AS big, but ive seen fully built h23's so it can be done. if your looking to turbocharge, and want some quick fix for a bit more power power, get an exaust(full cat back no smaller than 2.5 inch piping) and start saving for a f-max turbo kit or a drag gen3 if they make them for h23's.

you could also buy n2o (not nos, thats just the company) if you want a quick fix. nitrous usualy resales fast if you wana get nitrous, then save for a turbo kit. nitrous will just keep you buying refills and if you like to haul ass around alot and spray every day.. well.. save for the h22, because you need to be responsible with nitrous

you can buy the h22 also. then i/h/e and have a decently quick car. thats my current setup with a few other mods here and there. throw some cams and a clutch in there, and good driving, and you'll be in the 13's no problem.
